I really enjoyed this one. It's always fun to read about a band starting from their humble beginnings until they reach the height of their career, and in this case the characters (main and background) were so well drawn it was easy to get caught up in their lives and want to know more. I loved watching the relationship between Jake and Parker grow stronger and stronger and I found the ending very satisfying. I liked the blog posts and articles interspersed with the narrative too. My only quibble is with the footnotes/endnotes. Those remind me way too much of academic textbooks to be enjoyable and in an e-book they're a plain pain in the neck, especially since they rarely contained anything that wouldn't have been fine as a parenthetical. But obviously that's a very minor distraction from what was otherwise an excellent book. That was a cuuuuuute story!The whole rockstar/ band thing never did anything for me, but I really liked this story. I think it is because the book starts off with the band being a bunch of friends from school who want to become rockstars and not with them being famous already.And I am such a sucker for the adorable geeky hot guy! God, I LOVED Parker! Jake was really funny at times, but the way he was supposed to be a slut, nah didn’t like that. Jake and Parker were so sweet together. I liked it that there was a slow build-up and not lust at first sight. A pretty long wait for the sex to finally happen, but that was ok. I loved it that they were friends first before anything happened.
Do You like book American Love Songs (2010)?
This was a sweet light read, with little to no angst. Just what I needed :)
